Brother Again

Postby Doubleshadow » Tue Feb 14, 2006 9:45 am

Here is the first thread I put up on this.
http://www.christiananime.net/showthread.php?t=27334&page=1&pp=10

Well, I have good news. Lots of it actually. ^_^ Last time I was home, before this weekend, my Mom and I went shopping for devotional books for my brother because he asked for them. I talked to him after his stint in the hospital, and he realized that he probably shouldn't have lived and he didn't know whether or not he would have been in heaven. He has really worked to get his act together, and really likes the devotional I picked out for him (Perspectives, the same one I use). However, he is really struggling with one of his roomates. The guy is straining my brothers patience and fledgling walk with God in every way. So, I am beside myself to see him doing so well, yet he needs prayer for strength to deal with this roomate.
Thank you! :angel:

Praise the Lord! And I will be praying for him. I know how it is to have a brother you're really worried about.

Good to hear that things are improving for him in some ways. I'll be praying for him. :thumb:

Grr, it's so frustrating when you're trying to help someone grow and there are things like irritating roommates getting in the way. I'll pray that God will draw your brother close to Him, despite the lame-o roomate situation. :thumb:
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.

Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

High King of Heaven, my victory won,
May I reach Heaven’s joys, O bright Heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Love is that feeling you get when a girl looks at you and it feels like your driving a car at high speeds and experience a sudden drop. You know what i mean? That sudden sinking feeling you get in your stomach? Yeah, that's love. Leave's you speechless everytime.

Yeeeaaaaahhhhhh!!!!! Thank you, Jesus! :dance: :dance: :dance: My brother got saved!!! He got saved on Sunday! YES!!! I did not know for sure! But he is now! He decided to quit following God half way and give his life over to Christ for real!!! He called my parents and told them, and called my hometown pastor to arrange to be baptized! He just now called me! Oh, wow! But, he still has no Christian friends. The one he did have has left for seminary. I told him to call me whenever he needed to, and he said he would because I'm his only Christian contact around his age. I am SO happy though. Thank you all for praying. I'm gonna cry. I have been planning on getting rebaptized because I wasn't a Christian the first time. We might be baptized at the same time, or I might miss his baptism to go with a mission team to Mississippi, don't know yet. Pray for us! :dance: :dance: :dance:
